Defensemen
Harrison Brunicke
Smart two-way defenceman with solid mobility, polished habits and flashes of a growing offensive game. Production is unimpressive, but the tools scream second-pair, do-it-all blue-liner.
David Reinbacher
Mature and well-rounded defender who processes the game at a high level. More substance than flash but projects as a reliable top-four NHL defenseman.
Drew Fortescue
A sturdy, reliable defenseman, known for good breakout passes and the ability to exit his own zone effectively. Possesses a lot of very good tools and has shown strong improvement over the past few seasons.
Zayne Parekh
Elite offensive defensemen with exceptional puck-handling, and scoring ability, though his defensive game needs development for the NHL level to reach that full potential.
Jesse Pulkkinen
Towering, mobile left-handed defenseman with great poise and tools. Needs to rein in the offensive aggression, but can develop into a unique second-pair blue-liner.
Kashawn Aitcheson
Punishing defenseman that likes to fire the puck and jump in the rush.
Matthew Schaefer
Smooth skating and creative puckmover with solid defensive instincts.
Sam Dickinson
Dickinson is a highly-effective defender, and stands out amongst his peers for his aggressiveness, defensive intelligence, and physicality.
Colton Roberts
Smooth-skating defense-minded defenseman who can make the occasional strong breakout pass. Lacks offensive pop and struggles against the rush, but projects as a solid bottom-pair NHLer.
